Official Description (Ad Blurb)

Deep into an abandoned temple of Egypt lies a cursed artifact, an ancient device capable of the unthinkable; Could this be the key to enter the mind of the god of destruction: Mental?

Blast your way through the most hideous corners of its mind, and prepare for a brain-melting showdown!## Features:

  • Fight against the wicked imaginations inside the mind of Mental, destructive god and Serious Sam's arch enemy, in an attempt to stop him once and for all.
  • Rich with content and replayability: procedurally generated dungeons, characters with unique abilities, randomized pools of powerful upgrades, tons of fun Serious Weapons ā„¢.
  • The Vault ā„¢: The final area contains many secrets and links to Mentalā€™s identity, giving you more goals than just ā€œdefeat the final bossā€. You will need to beat many challenges in order to stop Mental once and for all.
  • Mindmap: discover hidden ideas inside of Mental's mind - what enemies, weapons, and items is he imagining to use in the real world? Acquire those ideas, and use them by yourself. Can you discover all of them?

  • Quests: beat various challenges to unlock new worlds, characters, Serious Weapons ā„¢ and upgrades. Over time, you will discover new places hidden inside of Mental's mind.

  • Created by fans of Geometry Wars, Nuclear Throne, Binding of Isaac, Serious Sam and Enter the Gungeon. <3
